Enasoit Private Wildlife Sanctuary

Enasoit Private Wildlife Sanctuary

Kenya’s most exclusive safari experience

Experience the very best of Kenya at Enasoit Game Sanctuary on the world-renowned Laikipia Plateau at the foot of Mount Kenya.

The enchanting private wildlife sanctuary and luxury tented camp was born of a Scandinavian family’s deep love of Africa. After being shared exclusively with friends and family for a number of years, the world-class destination is finally open to discerning guests from across the globe.

Offered on an exclusive basis, Enasoit Game Sanctuary offers a uniquely private safari experience for a family or group of friends. The reserve is exclusively yours for the duration of your stay, with the entire team on hand to meet your every need.

Enasoit Game Sanctuary

Enasoit Game Sanctuary is located in a naturally rich wildlife corridor, and is a game watching paradise. Imagine you and your loved ones enjoying the sights of giraffe, zebra and gazelle grazing quietly in front of your camp, or watching elephant and buffalo popping in for a drink at the nearby watering hole. The birdlife is, of course, equally spectacular.

Due to the exclusive nature of your Enasoit safari experience, you can plan your time and activities exactly as you wish. While you may be tempted to simply kick back in your luxury accommodationand watch the best of Kenya’s wildlife walk by, there are a number of exciting activities on offer at no additional cost.

Think guided game walks and night drives, bush picnics and sundowner drinks at Enasoit’s most scenic spots, exploring the landscape and getting up close to the wildlife on horseback, lion-spotting adventures, bird watching drives through cedar forests, excursions to the nearby town, or indulgent massage and spa treatments overlooking the passing game. Another truly unique and memorable highlight is the Enasoit Thinking Man’s Safari speaker, an expert in a field of interest specific to you and your group that the team sources and invites to join you for a day!

Helicopter flights

Enasoit Game Sanctuary is situated virtually on the doorstep of the vast untouched landscapes of northern Kenya, and the team offers unforgettable helicopter flights that allow guests to explore the surrounding areas, from fly-fishing on the lakes of Mount Kenya to marvelling at the flamingoes of the Rift Valley.

Accommodation at Enasoit Game Sanctuary comprises a beautifully appointed luxury camp with six double/twin en-suite tented cottages overlooking a busy watering hole. Each room boasts a fireplace, private veranda and comfortable seating area with sheepskin sofas for morning tea and game viewing.

There is a private wooden deck for game viewing and drinks, and a dining and sitting area with a fireplace for the cooler evenings. The watering hole and salt licks, barely 50 metres away, are lit up at night, providing unparalleled nocturnal game viewing.

Set alongside one of the area’s dramatic rock outcrops, the Enasoit Pool House is a great location for lunches and relaxed afternoons in an aloe garden a mere five-minute drive from camp. There are also two thatched double cottages here for additional accommodation for larger groups.

Enasoit Library of African books

Guests can also enjoy long leisurely hours relaxing in the heated and plunge pools, exploring all the knowledge available in the Enasoit Library of African books, or even spending some special time with the Sanctuary’s rescued orphaned animals, including Mable the ostrich, Ziggy the zebra and Piggy the warthog!

Another highlight is, of course, the dining experience. The Enasoit kitchen is well known, with guests enjoying carefully chosen local produce as well as vegetables and herbs straight from the garden. With morning tea, full English breakfast, camp or Pool House lunch, evening drinks and canapés and mess-tent dinner, there’s not much chance you’ll ever find yourself hungry during your stay!

All told, there’s little doubt that Enasoit Game Sanctuary offers the most exclusive safari experience in all of Kenya.
